Jiang, Yuhong V.; Swallow, Khena M.; Sun, Liwei – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2014
Visuospatial attention prioritizes regions of space for perceptual processing. Knowing how attended locations are represented is critical for understanding the architecture of attention. We examined the spatial reference frame of incidentally learned attention and asked how it is influenced by explicit, top-down knowledge. Participants performed a…

Dutke, Stephan; Rinck, Mike – Learning and Instruction, 2006
From the cognitive model of multimedia learning proposed by [Schnotz, W., & Barnett, M. (2003). Construction and interference in learning from multiple representation. "Learning and Instruction, 13", 141-156], two hypotheses regarding the learning of spatial arrangements of objects were derived: the integration hypothesis and the multiple source…
